Can you answer this math homework? Please!
luda_lava [24]

Answer: (3.5,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, all we have to do is plug in y=-2 into either equations from step one to find the coordinate. To make sure we have the right x-coordinate, let's plug in y for both equations.

4x-7y=28        [plug in y=-2]

4x-7(-2)=28    [multiply]

4x+14=28       [subtract both sides by 14]

4x=14              [divide both sides by 4]

x=3.5

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

6x-5y=31        [plug in y=-2]

6x-5(-2)=31    [multiply]

6x+10=31       [subtract both sides by 10]

6x=21             [divide both sides by 6]

x=3.5

Now, we know the solution to the system is (3.5,-2).

What is the reason for each step in the solution of the inequality?<br><br> −2(x+3)−4&gt;4x+30
DochEvi [55]
You would have to first distribute the -2 to the x+3 which gives you -2x-6.  Then you would subtract the 4 which gives you -2x-10 on the left side.  Now you have the equation -2x-10>4x+30.  Move the 4x to the other side giving you         -6x-10>30.  Now add the 10 from the other side which leaves you with -6x>40.  Now remember when you divide by a negative in an inequality, you HAVE TO flip the sign giving you the answer of x<-20/3.
